Thanks for your question. I posted a new comment with your answer :) I'd love to see your finished project! PS. Awesome Batman light. Only with cardboard? Impressive!

The total cost for the materials, not tools, is about $42 - that is assuming that you have zero items at your disposal. Glue is about $5. If you have some glue at home, you have already saved the $5, since you need so little of it. Below I have included a list of where you can find the products and how much each one costs. Of course, you may be able to find them for less, or borrow a small segment of wire from a friend.LED Back Light - Adafruit, 23mm x 75mm $2.95 OR Orient Display (in Canada) #JAZZ-AE-W $3.65 - these can be selected in several colors as well as whiteShrink Tubing - Lowe's, #757549 $2.18/8 pkWire - Jameco $5.95/100 ftResistor - Jameco, #690620 $.99/10 pkUSB Board - Adafruit, #1833 $1.50Electrical Tape - Jameco $1.49Glue - Home Depot, White Gorilla Glue, $4.97 Double...see more »The total cost for the materials, not tools, is about $42 - that is assuming that you have zero items at your disposal.
